346 On new Species of the Genus Hapalochrus. 
Hah. Inpta, Nilgiri Hills (ex coll. Andrewes). 
One male ona four females. Very different from the two 
nearest allied Hastern Hapalvehri (Nos. 68, 69) enumerated 
by me in my earlier ‘“* Notes” on the genus; the 9 has the 
general facies of the African H. mollis. The prothorax is 
much less developed than in the Malayan H. mirabilis, Pic. 
69(b). Hapalochrus cingalensis, sp. n. 
3. Elongate, very narrow, slender, gradually widened 
posteriorly, moderately shining, closely cinereo-pubescent ; 
ereen or bluisl-green, the antenne (the testaceous lower 
surface of joint 1 excepted) and legs black; the head and 
elytra densely, very finely, the prothorax (except at the sides) 
more sparsely, punctate. Head (with the eyes) broader than 
the prothorax, the eyes large; antennz very long, strongly 
flabellate from joint 4 onward, 1 and 2 stout, curved (the 
connecting node exposed), 3 produced into a long tooth. 
Prothorax small, strongly transverse, transversely sulcate 
before the base. Elytra very elongate, broader than the 
prothorax, widening from the base. Legs slender; anterior 
tarsal joints 1 and 2 slightly thickened, 2 extending over 
base of 3 above; anterior tibiz hollowed from the middle 
onwards (appearing strongly sinuate within) ; intermediate 
tibie slightly hollowed beyond the middle. 
2. Antenne elongate, slender, joints 4-9 long and simply 
serrate. 
Length 3-34 mm. (¢ 9.) 
Hab. Cryton, Dikoya, alt. 3800-4200 ft., and Horton 
Plains, alt. 6000 ft. (G. Lewis: 1-11. 1882). 
Th pairs. Smaller, narrower, more slender, and less 
shining than J. ni/giriensis and H. orientalis, the eyes 
larver, the head and elytra very densely, minutely punctate, 
the anterior rami of the g very long and slender. 4. cinga- 
lensis has the general facies of a Dasytes. 
69 (c). Hapalochrus orientalis, sp. n. 
9. Moderately elongate, rather convex, widened pos- 
teriorly, shining, cinereo-pubescent; obscure nigro-czruleous, 
the legs and antennee black, the basal joint of the latter 
testaceous beneath ; the head and the disc of the prothorax 
rather closely, the sides of the latter and the elytra 
densely, finely punctate. Head about as broad as the pro- . 
thorax; antenne moderately long, rather strongly serrate. 
Prothorax strongly transverse, deeply, transversely depressed
